Abstract
A conveyor passenger interface system is described. The system includes a passenger reception area ( 10 ) having a mechanism ( 14 ) for receiving a voice request from a passenger. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the voice request receiving mechanism ( 14 ) is a sound dome. The system further includes a device ( 18 ) responsive to the voice request for identifying a conveyor for transporting the passenger to a desired location and for identifying the conveyor to the passenger. The system of the present invention has utility in elevator systems as well as other transportation systems.
Description
Background of invention
The present invention relates to a kind of conveyor passenger interface system, arrive the desired position in order to provide information about which conveyer to use to the passenger.
Present elevator device needs the user to press the button to call out elevator.After elevator arrived the floor that the user is positioned at, elevator door was opened, and the user must press for the second time button to point out the desired position at that time.
A defective of current system is that system controller is not known passenger's destination before the passenger presses the button second time.Thereby, the conveyer that controller can not use it effectively with mode transfer system user efficiently to their required destination.
Brief summary of the invention
Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to provide and to transport the passenger does not need to press any button to desired location improved conveyor passenger interface system.
Further object of the present invention provides and allows the better improved conveyor passenger interface system that uses one group of conveyer.
Aforesaid purpose can be reached by conveyor passenger interface system of the present invention.
According to the present invention, provide a kind of conveyor passenger interface system.Native system comprises having the passenger receiving area that is used for receiving from the passenger device of voice request, and the voice responsive request is to determine to transport the passenger to the conveyer of desired location and determine device for passenger's conveyer.
Other details of conveyor passenger interface system of the present invention reaches other subsidiary in addition target and advantage and is illustrated in following details description and accompanying drawing, and wherein similarly reference numerals is described similar elements.
The accompanying drawing summary
Fig. 1 is to use the schematic description of the passenger receiving area in conveyor passenger interface system of the present invention.
Fig. 2 is the schematic description of the controlling schemes in the conveyor passenger interface system of the present invention; With
Fig. 3 is the schematic description of the panel of conveyer inside.
Embodiment
Referring now to accompanying drawing, Fig. 1 has shown passenger receiving area 10.Receiving area 10 may be to have in the buildings of a plurality of floors the part in entrance hall on any floor.Receiving area 10 may be served by a plurality of conveyers 12 (for example lift car).Though all floors in each possibility service building thing in the conveyer, but, what can consider is that chosen some of conveyer 12 will be served the chosen floor of some of them, so that transport the passenger with efficient way between receiving area 10 and required destination.
At least one sound dome (sound dome) 14 preferably is provided at receiving area 10.If desired, each receiving area 10 can have a plurality of sound dome 14.Each sound dome 14 can be installed on the structure of any static state in the receiving area 10, including, but not limited to, ceiling, wall, pillar or the like.Sound dome 14 as shown in Figure 2, can comprise receiver/translator unit 16.Receiver/translator unit 16 can comprise any similar unit known in the art.The receiver parts of unit 16 detect the voice command from the passenger, and the transmitter part of unit 16 transmits voice command to controller 18.Controller 18 can be any suitable processing unit known in the art, and can programme with any suitable speech recognition software.
Further, sound dome 14 also can comprise the display device 24 that is connected to controller 18.Display device 24 can be that optical generator is to produce the color corresponding to the color of the conveyer 12 that is taken by the passenger.Perhaps, display device 24 can the is-symbol generator, and this symbol generator produces concrete symbol or the numeral related with the concrete conveyer that taken by the passenger 12.The color that produces, symbol or numeral can show in any required mode.For example, they can be displayed on the wall of floor or receiving area.Perhaps, they can be displayed on the panel of the wall that is fixed in region of acceptance 10 or some other static structure (for example pillar of region of acceptance 10).
In case find the passenger, controller 18 can send the voice command that shows desired location to the passenger.So the passenger will specify required destination, required destination is received device/translator unit 16 and detects and be sent to controller 18.Controller 18 selects to transport most effectively the conveyer 12 of passenger to required destination then.Slave controller 18 issues a signal to display device 24 with the generation symbol then, color, and numeral, the combination of random color/symbol/numeral, perhaps other determines the mark of occupied conveyer 12 to the passenger.For example, if color is produced, this color is fixed in the conveyer that will use the color panel contiguous or top with correspondence.If numeral or symbol are produced, this numeral or symbol correspondence are on the door of conveyer or numeral or symbol on the wall of contiguous conveyer.Communication between controller 18 and the sound dome 14 can be established with different ways, comprise and be not limited to rigid line connecting, wireless, perhaps any other type, the information that allows registration is sent to the communication modes of controller 18 from sound dome 14, and vice versa.
Referring now to Fig. 3, the panel 30 that has display 32 is arranged in the inside of each conveyer 12, display 32 is pointed out (1) destination, for example, the range of floors of conveyer service, (2) because passenger's voice command, conveyer is assigned the direction of the transporting of the destination of stop and (3) conveyer/position.If climb up the passenger of conveyer 12 do not see his/her destination of request, this passenger knows at that time needs further action that conveyer is stopped in required destination.This further action may only be the button of pressing on 12 li second panels 34 of conveyer, if this conveyer is just being served this destination.If the destination of the passenger exceeds the destination of conveyer 12 service, then he or have to withdraw from conveyer 12, the nearest floor that perhaps advances to conveyer 12 services withdraws from again.An advantage of display 32 is that it allows the passenger to determine that his required destination does not have whether appointed reason is because conveyer 12 can not be served that destination.
During the non-peak hours, sound dome 14 can not occur, and conveyor system can be used as the modular system operation.Therefore, if conveyor system is an elevator device, the passenger may have to press the button to call out lift car and transports him to required floor.
Though the present invention is described in context of elevator systems, conveyor passenger interface system of the present invention uses extensively.For example, this system can be used in and transport the passenger in the tramcar system or relate in the system of other means of transport.
According to the present invention, obviously already provided here conveyor passenger interface system satisfies target, method and the advantage of above illustrating fully.Though be described in the scope of the present invention's specific embodiment therein, if read aforementioned description, other alternatives, change and variation will become obvious to being familiar with those skilled in the art.Therefore, when in the broad range that drops on claims, be intended to comprise those alternativess, change and changing.
